(HBO) – The Hoa Binh branch of the Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV) is one of the key banks in the province. With a widespread network of transaction points covering important localities like Hoa Binh city, and Luong Son and Cao Phong districts, BIDV Hoa Binh has contributed greatly to local socio-economic development.
Staff members of the BIDV Hoa Binh branch have stepped up credit
disbursement to support production and business activities of local
enterprises.
The branch has mobilized over 3 trillion VND
(132.1 million USD) of capital since the beginning of 2018, equivalent to 86
percent of this year’s target. Its credit provision has also grown as planned.
By the end of the first quarter, outstanding loans of BIDV Hoa Binh exceeded
3.26 trillion VND (143.6 million USD), up 0.07 percent from the end of 2017,
equal to 222.26 billion VND. Specifically, outstanding loans for businesses

good, bringing in net revenues of 3.79 billion VND (167,000 USD) in the first
